More Random Thoughts

2 motorcyles and only 1 helmet. Be prepared never meant so little
 
So, I used Siri for the first time in a couple of years just now. Siri is completely useless. I just don't understand how she became a big selling point for the iphone 4 or whatever it was...

Also, with a new job comes new toys. My first priority is a new phone so I can not go blind from this 4.5 inch screen. A new computer is in the works as we speak. My PC is fine right now, but I could really use a more capable CPU to pair with a high end GPU.

Finally, if you play videogames on a console, consider this... no console has YET to reach a pure 60 frames per second at 1080p. Let that sink in as you hear all the hype about PS4 Pro and the new Xbox Scorpio running 4K resolution. Really, think about it. We live in 2016, and we aren't hitting 60 frames per second. Honestly, stop paying for these consoles. They are just complete garbage, and most people throw money at them thinking that they will get a superior experience. I hate to shit on the party, but even photorealism doesn't matter if it's not running at 60 frames per second. Think on that as the holiday season is here.

Spec has never been analagous to enjoyment. 15 years in the computer game industry showed me people who thought their machine/console/os was superior, and you know what? Enjoyment is subjective. Don't try and tell me that you have more fun on your custom rig than I do on my PS4 or Xbox, or that I did on my PS1 back in the day. And trust me - 3 years down the line people will be taking the piss out of the sad 60fps croud because the next benchmark will be set. If you want to warn people to not buy into something make it elitism.

Happy Hanukkah all :)
 
in some parts of the world a snickers and ginger ale for breakfast would be considered a feast.
 
Why do people pick their nose at stop lights? Do they think the windows only work one way?
